Chamber launches quarterly business survey with £350 Fogo De Chao gift card up for grabs

Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce (GBCC) Quarterly Business Report survey for Q3 has launched, with each participant having a chance to win a £350 gift card to dine at Fogo De Chão (terms and conditions apply).

The report, sponsored by Birmingham City University, is the most comprehensive regular report of its kind in the city region, offering an up-to-date snapshot of the performance of the Greater Birmingham business community.

Survey data will be collated at a national level and will feed into policy and lobbying activity for both GBCC and the British Chambers of Commerce, reaching institutions such as the Government and the Bank of England.

On average, the survey takes around five minutes to complete.

Each participant will also have the opportunity to enter a prize draw, with the chance to win a £350 gift card to dine at Fogo De Chão. (terms and conditions apply)

Paige Bowyer, Policy and Research Analyst, said:” The latest QBR results highlighted a resilient business community, with confidence at its highest level since Q1 2025 and recruitment pressures continuing to ease.”

“However, businesses continue to face a challenging operating environment, with investment intentions softening and cost pressures remaining a concern.”

“While some indicators have improved, the data suggests many firms remain cautious about the outlook for growth and investment.”

“As we approach the Autumn Budget, it is important that businesses take part in the next QBR survey so we can build an accurate picture of business sentiment and ensure policymakers understand the realities facing firms across Greater Birmingham.”
